Pricing
I understand that exploring IVF can be a significant decision and carry a financial burden. The options you generally have are to pay in full, some clinics do zip payments, and the last option is accessing your superannuation. We have been extremely lucky to have avoided the last option so far. My understanding in how it works is limited but it is certainly worth discussing with your clinic as there are a few hoops to jump through to get yourself access.
General overview
I am sharing the general costing that we have found with Monash IVF. We used ICSI and so this is a rough guide of what to expect. Please speak to the financial team of your clinic to get a proper quote.
The quotes generally include scans, blood tests, care during cycle and after and consults before and after the cycle to talk about how things are going and what to do next (if that is needed)
